The heat pump model on site was not the same as the early design note. Several insulation photos were sitting in different phones across the team. The SAP assessor had been sent drawings from an older revision.

On paper, the design SAP calculations were workable. On site, the team had made normal construction changes.\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">Some changes were minor. Some mattered.\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">A few window U values had been updated after procurement. The hot water cylinder specification had changed due to availability. A small number of thermal junction photos were missing. Ventilation commissioning dates had shifted. The air tightness strategy was clear to the site team, but the evidence trail was spread across drawings, emails, WhatsApp photos and supplier data sheets.\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">The risk was not just a single calculation issue. The bigger risk was delay caused by poor coordination.\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">For Part L, the design, the installed specification and the evidence need to tell the same story. SAP is not just a desktop calculation at the end of the job. It relies on accurate inputs from drawings, fabric details, services, air testing, thermal bridging, ventilation and commissioning.\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">GOV.UK describes SAP as the Standard Assessment Procedure used to calculate a home&rsquo;s energy performance. Approved Document L also makes clear that air pressure test results are used to show compliance with relevant Part L requirements, and that results need to be recorded and provided in line with the regulation 43 process. \u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">The client wanted a cleaner process before final testing, not a panic after it.\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">\u003Cb>What made this job tricky\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fb>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">\u003Cb>1.

That meant evidence had to be gathered carefully, plot by plot, without assuming one photograph covered the whole site.\u003Co:p>\u003C\u002Fo:p>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\">\u003Cb>2.
